Charles returned the kickoff 40 yards to the KC 38 and Cassel moved the Chiefs past midfield with a 13-yard pass to Bowe. Charles ran 12 yards to the Oakland 37 but the drive soon stalled and Succop was wide left on a 52-yard field goal, giving the Raiders the ball at their 43 . . . Five straight runs by Bush to open the possession pushed the Raiders past midfield and to the KC 22. Two plays later, still from the 22, the Raiders lost a 15-yard pass to Miller when they had a lineman downfield and were penalized. Brandon Flowers dropped an easy interception but it didn’t cost the Chiefs when Janikowski was wide left on a 46-yard field goal attempt. It was Janikowski’s first miss of the season . . . The Chiefs retained possession after a Bowe fumble. Both teams had a shot at the ball before Brian Waters recovered for a 35-yard gain to the Oakland 22. On third and 10, a pass to Charles left the Chiefs a yard short of the first down. Instead of taking the field goal, Cassel’s fourth down pass was incomplete . . . . The Raiders ran three plays and punted from deep in their territory. The Chiefs gained possession at the Oakland 48 . . . A handoff between Cassel and Charles went awry on Kansas City’s first play, giving Oakland the ball at the Chiefs’ 48. The Raiders yanked Russell, who was 8 of 23 for 64 yards and replaced him with Bruce Gradkowski. Andy Studebaker, playing for the injured Mike Vrabel, batted down a pass on third down and Oakland punted with the Chiefs taking over late in the period at their 13 . . . Charles was injured on the first play after the punt but left the field without help.
